Max weight preferred in kg?

Hmm, I'm not really sure how heavy a regular one, nvr own one.
How about 2.5kg max?

1060:
Illegear Raven (TongFang GJ5CN6E) with 144Hz IPS
Commandos Katana 5 (Clevo P950EP6) - thin and light, mediocre cooling

1050TI:
Illegear Onyx Lite (TongFang GK5CN5Z)
Lenovo Legion Y530 81FV00M8MJ or customize (72% NTSC 60/144Hz IPS)
Illegear Raven (TongFang GI5CN5E) with 144Hz IPS
Commandos Glock 5 (Clevo NB50TK1) with 72% NTSC 60/120Hz IPS
Asus GL503GE

Thanks bro, will look into that.

End up I still go for y730 with student discount. May I know if the 144hz worth upgrade if rarely game on it?

144Hz mostly for gaming purpose only imo

Thanks for the info.

was pissed off because i thought the screen was quite poor and dim and colours kept "fluctuating" despite me getting the 144hz 300 nit panel..

when using, switching between dark and bright backgrounds, the colour slowly creeps to darker or lighter depending on background. was super irritating to use and getting eye sore..

then only found out windows 10 had something called adaptive brightness feature that is enabled by default..

now the easy fix used to be to just turn it off in power options.
https://lifehacker.com/disable-windows-anno...e-on-1567886994

but since the 1809 update, windows removed that option menu entirely in power options.. and now the only way to do it is through command prompt..
thnakfully found some guides on google and finally manage to turn adaptive brightness off..

and my god, the screen is finally usable and nice.
why tf they even make adaptive brightness enable by default with no ways to disable it is mindbogglingly stupid sia..

seems like they have removed the y530 i5+1060 from the website as i was recommending this spec to someone else and cant find it anymore..

i managed to get mine just about a week before the removed it from the website..

4.5k after student discount for 144hz screen + i5 + 1060 + 8gb ram + 256gb nvme ssd + 2x2 wifi..

available for purchase in malaysia already..

the 8k price tag though..

But price in US seem cheaper alot, USD 1.5k+- for RTX2060

Never compared prices between US and Malaysia, not accurate one

Yeah I know, but still

not only us, sg also suffer same thing.
2880 sgd for y740 over there..

if convert 1550 usd to sgd its 2106.

2880 - 2106 = 774 sgd higher than direct compare.

774 sgd = 2327 rm...
so their price and ours also around 2k higher compared with US market..
but yeah, thats why we cant compare with US pricing.
US pricing always gonna be way cheaper than us.

Waiting for the Lenovo Y540 to come out. I wonder what the price will be for rtx 2060.

im guessing it will be around the 6k bracket. either high 5ks or low to mid 6ks area.. 5800~6500 range i guess for y540.

and coming in end of march or april i guess

The price is quite good IMO if that's the case

Hi guys. Which one more worth it? I'll be using it mainly for work and light gaming/movie if time permits.
Edit: light gaming means city skylines

Y530

I dont think i need the 144Hz, 300nits display but i7 > i5 right?
Can an i5, 16GB ram, 256gb ssd beat an i7, 8GB ram, 128gb ssd?
Which configuration can last me many yrs without need to upgrade?
Please advise.

% of work vs gaming If more into work , i would opt for business laptops like Thinkpad T480
